Today, the Elks is a major American fraternal, charitable and Service order. Our Clovis Elks Lodge #2599 on a local level and very personal level, continues their tradition of fraternity, support and community service in ways that make a difference in Clovis.
Clovis Elks Lodge #2599, Located in an unassuming building one block south of the center of Old Town, has an active membership that is dedicated to in their support of veterans, youth and our community values. The building is a familiar gathering place for members and guests, hosting dinners and other celebrations.
In 1919, the Elks established a "Flag Day Resolution" and more than 100 years later, Elks Lodge #2599 continues that tradition for all of us. Clovis Elks Members volunteer at the Poverello House and hold many fundraising events during the year to help support the annual Christmas party for the families of deployed soldiers and other community projects.

And, in service to our country, and our flag and rituals of patriotism, our local Elks Club members work with our local Boy Scouts to properly dispose of worn Stars and Stripes.
So who are the Elks? Simply put, "Elks are community. No matter where you go in the country an Elks Lodge is right around the corner. With more than 2,000 lodges nation wide, Elks are providing charitable services that help build stronger communities."
